This integration of the local library with the streaming service is great. I should try the others too. MAI sounds great too and all the others of course!! Up 'til now I was trying to configure DSD playback and finally I think I did it ok. 384khz can't play but no problem.. I have just an album and some test tracks. I use iPeng on my iPad as remote. For questions I will post to the threat I opened in the "Beginners" category!
